Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They spend an average of 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in fact many podiatry programmes are located inside these schools.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have gained comprehensive healthcare training with an attention to on conditions concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are educated to treat conditions varying from conventional ailments for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more obscure such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot.
